Baws, let’s continue exercising and eating better

“Even alongside other health conditions, weight was the most significant risk she said. "We've heard that people with diabetes, for example, are at increased risk and that's absolutely true, but in many cases part of that increased risk is through being overweight. So when you adjust for overweight, actually the risk of having diabetes is much, much smaller. So obesity is the big risk factor."

Well no shite. When your body is too busy metabolizing all the shite you fat fricks eat instead of warding off infection what the frick so you expect.

COVID targets fat people and stupid people. So at least the gene pool is improving.

“Any size can be healthy.” This is pushed by many extreme leftist, when it’s factually not true. Some people(especially women) can carry some unneeded fat and be healthy, but to say “any” size can be healthy is just factually incorrect. Someone who is on one of those 1000 pound life shows is not healthy, they can’t even fricking move.

It shows a lot of the decision makers (elected officials) and media members, and people like Fauci, don’t give one shite about “saving lives.” It’s all about the appearances/perception as well as control/pushing certain agendas.

Yea as said this should be obvious. Before Corona there were still heart attacks, diabetes etc. which are often caused from unhealthy lifestyles.

At least they closed all the gyms so people couldn't work out

Actually a lot of people have been saying no it isn’t necessarily the weight, it is the fact that those people have other things such as diabetes and hypertension.

This is saying that is wrong
